Some of our system had write cache enabled and used Device Mapper. We have disabled the cache. We got some new, possibly related, problems and was forced to clear the log.

We will use xfs_dump/restore. -- Emil Assarsson _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
